Planet Mars looks fairly orange . . .
Comment: I can't do much better than that, but Mars is more red than orange.
Also Jupiter has a lot of orange in its stripey atmosphere.
Edit: Venus is another possible answer. Its clouds are a brilliant white, but the
rocks on the surface have an orange colour, I believe.
The sun everyone knows that the planets go around the sun check out a picture on google.com or look on youtube to see a video.
If you look at the four outer planets, they are composed largely of easily vaporized substances substances: hydrogen, helium, water, ammonia, and methane. These light, volatile substances, which accounted for most of the mass of the proto solar system, were driven out of the inner solar system by the strong solar wind of the young sun, leaving the inner planets with material that was mostly rock and metal.
Eight if you don't count Pluto. That is - 8 major planets. But there are several minor planets though; Pluto (obviously) Ceres (in the asteroid belt) Charon (Pluto's twin planet) and several others that are farther out than Pluto. look them up online - Trans-plutonion planets or planetoids.
The solar system appears flat when viewed from the side because the planets orbit the sun in roughly the same plane called the ecliptic. This alignment creates the appearance of a flat disk when observed from a different perspective.
Hmm. Let's have a look out side. How many Suns do I see? One. Our Solar System is not part of a binary star system, otherwise you'd see two Suns in the sky.
to have something to look at when you can see them

Depends on the planet's distance from the Sun. Look up references to the Solar System or to its individual planets for the actual values.
They don't because their different in size, shape, and color
If you look at it in a planetary perspective they are called moons. But if you look at it in a solar system perspective they are called planets, dwarf planets and asteroids. If you look at it at a galaxy size they are called Suns and Stars.
Assuming you have functioning sight, you look up on a dark clear night.
cloud tops The four largest planets in our solar system are gas giants. They have no solid surface.
The force of gravity between the planets and the sun keeps them in orbit and prevents them from flying out of the solar system. The sun's gravitational pull keeps the planets in stable orbits around it.
If all of the planets in our solar system were to line up, it wouldn't have any significant effects on Earth. Planetary alignments are not rare and do not cause any gravitational or catastrophic events. The planets in our solar system are far apart and their positions are constantly changing due to their orbits.
I recommend the Nine Planets web site as the first place to look; it has much of the information you want, and links to the rest.
Yes.___________________________ NO! this is incorrect, Not all 'Giant' planets have rings, look at Jupiter, it's the largest planet in out solar system and it does not have rings. Jupiter has rings, see the Related Link.
